X301 Made the plunge, I hope I don't regret it!

#1 Post by Nubulin » Tue Mar 10, 2009 11:19 pm

I ordered an X301 today. I got a great deal on a new Topseller with the Intel 80GB SSD. I have been searching for a more portable replacement to my T60P for about 3 months now and it was a really tough call. I am still not 100% sold on the decision. I bet I spent 40 hours looking at all the notebooks out there, weighing options, etc. After all a notebook is about a 2-2.5 year comitment for me! I wanted something smaller overall than the X301 and more powerful, but EVERYTHING (including the X301) required a lot of compromises. Most had crappy 1280x800 screens, some had weak battery life, and even the X200s (which I love) didn't have a touchpad. The X301 was near the upper end in cost, but has most of what I want.

Anyone else in the same boat?

Banish any thoughts of buyer's remorse. You're gonna love it.
